Chapter 449: Chapter 449: The Big Pit Dug by Ye Xuan

Croupier dealt the cards.

By the time the seventh card was in his hand, it was indeed the Six of Spades, exactly as he had anticipated.

Ye Xuan glanced at the card and then spread his hand out directly, with a calm and composed expression. There was nothing to be surprised about.

Jia Mingliang also laid out his cards, revealing the Three of Clubs, which was virtually useless.

"Looks like you’re going to lose this round, Jia. That’s not a very good hand."

Ye Xuan grinned mischievously, deliberately taunting Jia Mingliang to see how he would boast.

"Hmph, you’re celebrating too early! You think you’ll see me lose? Just look at my hole card."

Jia Mingliang scoffed, thinking to himself how Ye Xuan dared to act arrogant with just a sequence in front of him, watch how he’ll butcher him.

After speaking, he flipped his hole card and laughed loudly, "Open your eyes wide and take a good look! This is a Full House, your small straight doesn’t stand a chance against me. You’re more likely to get eaten whole!"

"Oh my! A Full House? Seems like you’re pretty lucky, Jia!"

Ye Xuan exclaimed dramatically and then curled the corners of his mouth, "Indeed, your hand beats a straight, but sadly, my hand isn’t a straight at all. You wanted to swallow me whole, but I’m afraid that’s not possible."

What?

Upon hearing Ye Xuan’s words, Jia Mingliang furrowed his brow and snorted, "So what if it’s not a straight? Seems you have a flush, and while that’s fortunate, the outcome remains the same. I’ll eat you up just the same!"

Ye Xuan’s lips curled into a teasing smile, replying nonchalantly, "Jia, when did I tell you my cards were a flush? Do you always play cards by wild guessing?"

As he spoke, Ye Xuan flipped over his hole cards, sneering, "See it? My hole cards are the Six of Hearts and the Six of Diamonds, paired with the Six of Clubs and this Six of Spades—I have a Four of a Kind Bomb, it annihilates your Full House!"

What!

A Bomb?

"How is this possible?"

Jia Mingliang was overwhelmed with shock, his eyes wide and filled with incredulity.

He never could have imagined that Ye Xuan would put together four Sixes, forming a Bomb! And on the last hand, no less—his luck was just too outrageous.

"Hehe, nothing is impossible in this world! Jia, I’ll gladly take your money. Keep it up, and make sure I don’t beat you out of everything!"

Ye Xuan chuckled as he retrieved the chips, offering Jia Mingliang a ’motivating’ cheer, nearly causing Jia to burst with fury.

This kid was definitely doing it on purpose!

Jia Mingliang’s face darkened, and just in that round, he had lost 2.7 million to Ye Xuan!

Subtracting the 670,000 he had won back earlier, he had almost lost 2 million, along with the previous 3 million, leaving him with only 5 million in chips.

Damn it!

Jia Mingliang’s complexion turned steel blue; continuing at this rate, it would just take another two or three rounds before he was finished.

"Hehe, Jia, I told you you can’t beat me. Don’t push yourself too hard!"

Ye Xuan chuckled, speaking with an air of leisure, "I’m quite generous, you know. If you concede early, I can save you 50 million! Keep a little something as pocket money, enough to buy a pair of underwear as a loincloth."

Ye Xuan’s words were akin to a slap in the face.

Jia Mingliang snorted heavily and said coldly, "Kid, winning against me won’t be that easy! Let’s go again!"

He couldn’t believe that Ye Xuan could keep up such good luck with every hand. Fortune was bound to take its turn; the god of luck should be on his side next.

"Ah, you just won’t quit until you’ve lost your underpants to me. Alright then, have it your way!"

Ye Xuan sighed inwardly, his face showing resignation.

Three more rounds were played.

Throughout these three rounds, Ye Xuan consistently had poor card luck, losing all of them to Jia Mingliang and forfeiting a million in chips!

However, he remained completely unruffled, his face the picture of nonchalance, which only elicited sneers from Jia Mingliang.

"Having lost the favor of Lady Luck, this kid still pretends to be calm. I really want to see how long he can hold on."

Following that, Ye Xuan continued to lose two more hands until, finally, in the sixth round, he was met with a huge turning point!

And this turning point would decide that Ye Xuan would become the ultimate victor of this Texas Hold’em showdown.

In that round, Ye Xuan’s first six cards were the nine of hearts, ten of hearts, Jack of hearts, Queen of hearts, four of hearts, and the two of clubs! Among these, the ten and Jack of hearts were his hole cards.

Just looking at these six cards, one could assemble a flush! And Ye Xuan’s seventh card was even more terrifying, a King of hearts!

Once in hand, 9, 10, J, Q, K could be arranged into a straight flush, which in Texas Hold’em, is second only to a Royal Flush.

This time, Jia Mingliang was also quite lucky; his two hole cards were the Ace of hearts and the Ace of spades, and the remaining four community cards were the Ace of clubs, Ace of diamonds, Queen of spades, and the three of clubs!

An Ace is the highest ranking card in Texas Hold’em, and four Aces make for a "Bomb" that’s much bigger than any Ye Xuan had before.

A four-Ace "Bomb" is the third highest ranking hand in Texas Hold’em, only smaller than a Royal Flush and Ye Xuan’s straight flush.

If it weren’t for running into Ye Xuan, such a hand would have dominated all over, but facing a straight flush, it looked like Jia Mingliang was destined for tragedy today.

Of course, Jia Mingliang didn’t know that Ye Xuan had a straight flush.

Seeing his four Aces, his heart was blooming with joy, thinking he had this win in the bag!

"Mr. Jia, continuing like this is just a waste of time. Even if we play until tomorrow morning, we might not determine a winner! How about we just go all-in? One round decides it all. Whoever wins takes it all, what do you say?"

Ye Xuan smiled lightly, naturally seizing this excellent opportunity and preparing to set a trap that Jia Mingliang would leap into.

If this guy fell for it, then he would win big in this gamble!

Hmm?

Jia Mingliang, still feeling secretly pleased, froze at Ye Xuan’s words, his eyes narrowed, and his brows knitted tightly together.

Ye Xuan presently had every advantage – why would he give up such a winning position to decide everything in one round?

Could it be...

That the guy had stumbled upon some excellent cards, confident in his victory over him?

Thinking this, he quickly looked up, only to see that Ye Xuan’s cards on the table were the nine of hearts, the Queen of hearts, the four of hearts, and the two of clubs – not counting the hole cards and the last one, at most, this hand could only make a flush, and was far from his own!

As for a straight flush, that seemed even less likely; given the scattered nature of the cards, even with the last card, the odds of forming a straight flush were slim to none.

Ha ha!

Thinking this way, Jia Mingliang was sure that Ye Xuan wanted to bet on a flush hand!

And with no one knowing the seventh card, he wouldn’t be relying on that.

Glancing back down at his own cards, the community cards of the Ace of clubs, Ace of diamonds, Queen of spades, and the three of clubs could obviously form a pair.

A pair of Aces, a big pair in the hierarchy, but still inferior to a flush. Ye Xuan must have seen this and therefore chose to push for an all-in showdown!

If it were him with such a hand, he too would definitely choose a flush to decide the outcome.

But...

What the other party didn’t know was that his own hole cards were two Aces, enough to make a four-Ace "Bomb," which would absolutely crush a flush!

Thinking this, Jia Mingliang’s mouth curved slightly upwards, convinced he had Ye Xuan right where he wanted, and that by deciding the round here, he would be the ultimate victor.

He wouldn’t rule out that Ye Xuan might have the extraordinary luck to form a straight flush, but that was nearly impossible.

No one could achieve that!
